ABSTRACT
Hot corrosion is a serious problem in aircraft, marine, industrial and land-base gas turbines. To obviate these problems, superalloy superfer 800H (Midhani grade) is one of the prominent materials for the high temperature applications. The present work investigates hot corrosion behaviour of superfer 800H exposed to two different molten salt environments Na2SO4 + 60% V2O5 and Na2SO4 + 5% V2O5 + 5% NaCl respectively, at 900oC under cyclic conditions. The weight change measurements made on during the experiments are used to determine the kinetics of hot corrosion. It is observed that the formation of scale rich in Cr2O3, NiO and spinel NiCr2O4 has contributed for the better hot corrosion resistance of superfer 800H. Inspection for 10, 20, 35 and 50 cycles reveals that after 10 cycles Crack has been initiated in the scale and it is clearly visible in the presence of NaCl salt. On subsequent cycles, crack propagates perpendicular to surface and as it encounters inclusions.

Does Immigration Promote the Investment of the Monopolistic Firm?

In the present paper, we examine the effect of increasing uncertainty of immigrants’ growth on the optimal timing of investment of a firm that has a monopolistic power over the labor market. It is revealed that when the uncertainty of immigrants’ growth is more than a threshold level, increasing uncertainty of immigrants’ growth accelerates the optimal timing of firms’ investment and enhances the economic growth, even if the uncertainty of immigrants’ growth is formulated by the geometric Brownian motion, which is in sharp contrast to the standard result that an increase in the uncertainty postpones the optimal timing. With an increase in the immigrants over the past ten years, workforces in the host countries have been growing significantly to the extent that the immigrants represent 70% of the increase in the workforce in Europe, and 47% in the United States as OECD indicates. In the present paper, we attempted to investigate the effect of increased uncertainty caused by the growi...

Education Policy Implementation: A Mechanism for Enhancing Primary Education Development in Zanzibar

Education is one of the fundamental rights of individuals; therefore, the government of a country needs to develop and strengthen educational policy and quality as well as to ensure that everyone has equal access to basic education. The improvement of access and quality of education in the world is becoming as an essential factor in development, whereas the basic education (primary school), is acknowledged as a foundation of the higher educational development for every country. To fulfill this goal, governments introduce several policies and procedures; however, it requires some reforms and participation from the politician, policymakers, and other stakeholders to re-examine educational policy so that it can lead to multiplication and betterment of the reforms. Educational reforms actually focus on accountability. A positive educational development and reform is very challenging and needs more effort and strategy on how to use and utilize the resources effectively as such it can achie...
